Get Out and Vote!!

Check out this recent article in AJN related to nurses and voting!

"The right to vote is fragile and can be suppressed if we are not vigilant in preserving this right for all citizens. To honor these strong, intelligent, and brave suffragists, nurses must register to vote, cast our ballots, and run for office. As ANA president Pamela F. Cipriano has noted, 'Nurses’ voices should be loud and strong. . . . When you set priorities for your busy life, please include time to exercise your right to vote . . . and help shape the direction of our country at the local, state, and national levels. Do your part.'" (Pollitt, 2018, p 53)
